DATE: December 4, 2024

   In consideration of the services of Zoar Outdoor Adventure Resort, LLC., their agents, owners, officers, volunteers, participants, employees, and all other persons or entities acting in any capacity on their behalf (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Zoar"​), I​ ​hereby​ ​agree​ ​to​ ​release​ ​and​ ​discharge​ ​Zoar,​ ​on​ ​behalf​ ​of​ ​myself,​ ​my​ ​children,​ ​my​ ​parents,​ ​heirs, assigns,​ ​personal​ ​representatives​ ​and​ ​estate​ ​as​ ​follows:

  1. ​I​ ​acknowledge​ ​that​ ​my​ ​participation​ ​in​ ​outdoor​ ​adventure-based​ ​activities​ ​such​ ​as​ ​zip​ ​line​ ​canopy​ ​tours, biking,​ ​river​ ​rafting,​ ​canoeing,​ ​kayaking,​ ​stand-up​ ​paddleboarding,​ ​and​ ​rock​ ​climbing​ ​entails​ ​known​ ​and unanticipated​ ​risks​ ​which​ ​could​ ​result​ ​in​ ​physical​ ​or​ ​emotional​ ​injury,​ ​paralysis,​ ​death,​ ​or​ ​damage​ ​to​ ​myself,​ ​to property,​ ​or​ ​to​ ​third​ ​parties.​ I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity. Furthermore, Zoar​ guides, instructors, facilitators have difficult jobs to perform. They seek safety, but they are not infallible. They might be unaware of a participant's fitness or abilities. They might misjudge the weather, the elements, or the terrain. They may give inadequate warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction.
  2. I​ ​expressly​ ​agree​ ​and​ ​promise​ ​to​ ​accept​ ​and​ ​assume​ ​all​ ​of​ ​the​ ​risks​ ​existing​ ​in​ ​this​ ​activity.​ My participation in this activity is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks.
  3. ​I​ ​hereby​ ​voluntarily​ ​release,​ ​forever​ ​discharge,​ ​and​ ​agree​ ​to​ ​indemnify​ ​and​ ​hold​ ​harmless​ Zoar​ from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action, which are in any way connected with my participation in this activity or my use of Zoar's​ equipment, vehicles, facilities, or premises before, during, and after this activity including​ ​any​ ​such​ ​claims​ ​which allege​ ​negligent​ ​acts​ ​or​ ​omissions​ ​of​ ​Zoar.
  4. Should Zoar​ or anyone acting on their behalf, be required to incur attorney's fees and costs to enforce this agreement, I​ ​agree​ ​to​ ​indemnify​ ​and​ ​hold​ ​them​ ​harmless​ ​for​ ​all​ ​such​ ​fees​ ​and​ ​costs.
  5. I certify that I have adequate insurance to cover any injury or damage I may cause or suffer while participating, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage myself. I further certify that I have no medical or physical conditions which could interfere with my safety in this activity, or else I am willing to assume -- and bear the costs of -- all risks that may be created, directly or indirectly, by any such condition.
  6. In the event that I file a lawsuit against Zoar​, I agree the Venue of any dispute that may arise out of this agreement or otherwise between the parties to which Zoar​ or its agents is a party shall be the State​ ​Superior​ ​Court​ ​in​ ​Franklin​ ​County, Massachusetts.​ I further agree that the substantive law of Massachusetts​ shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of law rules of that state.

   I do hereby consent to the use of my image by Zoar​ for any and all purposes, including without limitation video, still photographs, publication, and any trade or advertising purposes, providing such uses are not made so as to constitute a direct endorsement of any product or service.

   By​ ​signing​ ​this​ ​document,​ ​I​ ​acknowledge​ ​that​ ​if​ ​anyone​ ​is​ ​hurt​ ​or​ ​property​ ​is​ ​damaged​ ​before,​ ​during​ ​or after​ ​my​ ​participation​ ​in​ ​this​ ​activity,​ ​I​ ​may​ ​be​ ​found​ ​by​ ​a​ ​court​ ​of​ ​law​ ​to​ ​have​ ​waived​ ​my​ ​right​ ​to​ ​maintain​ ​a​ ​lawsuit against​ ​Zoar​ ​on​ ​the​ ​basis​ ​of​ ​any​ ​claim​ ​from​ ​which​ ​I​ ​have​ ​released​ ​them​ ​herein.

   I​ ​have​ ​had​ ​sufficient​ ​opportunity​ ​to​ ​read​ ​this​ ​entire​ ​document.​ ​ ​I​ ​have​ ​read​ ​and​ ​understood​ ​it,​ ​and​ ​I​ ​agree​ ​to be​ ​bound​ ​by​ ​its​ ​terms. I​ ​hereby​ ​declare​ ​that​ ​I​ ​am​ ​not​ ​under​ ​the​ ​influence​ ​of,​ ​nor​ ​will​ ​I​ ​use​ ​any​ ​recreational​ ​drugs​ ​or​ ​alcohol,​ ​while participating​ ​in​ ​any​ ​activity​ ​at​ ​Zoar​ ​Outdoor.

   I​ ​hereby​ ​declare,​ ​if​ ​I​ ​am​ ​participating​ ​in​ ​a​ ​Zipline​ ​Canopy​ ​Tour,​ ​that​ ​I​ ​weigh​ ​between​ ​70​ ​and​ ​250​ ​lbs.
